google map

We really struggled with this module and thought this might help others avoid the black hole.

1. Setting up Location Module with zipcode search for Drupal 6.13
Location: 6.x-3.1-rc1: http://drupal.org/project/location
GMap: 6.x-1.1-rc1: http://drupal.org/project/gmap
CCK: 6.x-2.5
Views: 6.x-2.6

2. Prelim with Google:
Create a Google account. If you are using GMail or Google Analytics you probably already have one.
Get a Google Maps API: http://code.google.com/apis/maps/signup.html
Save the API key as you will need it later.

3. In Drupal:

Anybody around has done advanced integration with google map.
I only do simple insertion but finding tough time with multiple markers with gmap views
